Wifi Fears Are “Unfounded”
By: Chris Marshall
Scientists have said that fears raised by the BBC programme Panorama about the safety of wifi are unfounded. Panorama reported on Monday (May 21) night that radiation levels from wi-fi in one school were up to three times the level of mobile phone mast radiation.
Sir William Stewart, chairman of the Health Protection Agency, said that there needed to be an urgent review of wifi safety after he provided the programme with evidence that that low-level radiation - from devices like mobile phones and wi-fi - did cause damage to people’s health.
However, some experts in the scientific community have disagreed with Sir William. Professor Lawrie Challis, of Nottingham University, said: “Wi-fi seems unlikely to pose any risk to health.” Prof Challis, chairman of the Mobile Telecommunications and Health Research (MTHR) programme management committee, said: “Wi-fi exposures are usually very small - the transmitters are low power and some distance from the body. They can be near to the body, however, when a laptop is on one’s lap and my own view is that just as we encourage young children not to use mobile phones we should also encourage them to use their laptops on a table rather than their lap, if they are going online for a long time.”
During its investigation, reporters from Panorama visited a a school in Norfolk, with more than 1,000 pupils, to compare the level of radiation from a typical mobile phone mast with that of wi-fi in the classroom. Readings showed the height of wi-fi signal strength to be three times higher in the school classroom than the main beam of radiation intensity from a mobile phone mast.

William Henry Gates III (born 28 October 1955) is an American entrepreneur, software executive, philanthropist and chairman of Microsoft, the software company he founded with Paul Allen. During his career at Microsoft he has held the positions of CEO and chief software architect, and he remains the largest individual shareholder with more than 9 percent of the common stock.
Gates is one of the best-known entrepreneurs of the personal computer revolution. Although he is admired by many, a large minority of industry insiders criticise his business tactics, which they consider as as anti-competitive. In some instances, courts have upheld this particular criticism. Other court cases on the same charges, in different jurisdictions, are still ongoing. In the later stages of his career, Gates has pursued a number of philanthropic endeavors, donating large amounts of money to various charitable organizations and scientific research programs through the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, established in 2000.
The annual Forbes magazine’s list of The World’s Billionaires has ranked Gates as the richest person in the world from 1995 to 2007, with recent estimates of his net worth over US$59 billion. When family wealth is considered, his family ranks second behind the Walton family, heirs of Wal-Mart founder Sam Walton. In July 2007, Fortune magazine reported that the increase in value of Mexican billionaire Carlos Slim’s holdings of stock caused him to surpass Bill Gates as the world’s richest man. Forbes maintains that Slim is second to Gates as of its last calculation of billionaire fortunes. Forbes does not plan to recalculate Slim’s wealth until next year seocontest2008.

Babbage, Charles (1792-1871)
Inventor of the calculating machines, the Difference Engines No 1 (1832) and 2 (1847-9), and his Analytical Engine (1834), ancestors of today’s computers. In 1906, his son, Henry Babbage, with the help of the firm of R. W. Munro, completed the “mill”, the equivalent of today’s CPU, of his father’s Analytical Engine, showing that it would have worked.
